The Toronto Blue Jays and Baltimore Orioles meet Wednesday in MLB action at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. The Blue Jays look for a win after splitting their last 10 games. The Orioles look for a win after splitting their last eight games.

The Toronto Blue Jays have scored 12 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in seven of their last nine games. The Blue Jays have won eight of their last 11 games when scoring four or more runs. Vladimir Guerrero Jr. leads the Blue Jays with 101 hits and 71 RBI while Bo Bichette and Marcus Semien have combined for 105 hits and 108 RBI. Hyun Jin Ryu gets the ball, and he is 7-5 with a 3.65 ERA and 74 strikeouts this season. Ryu is 3-0 with a 3.13 ERA and 23 strikeouts in his career against the Orioles.

The Baltimore Orioles have scored 13 runs in their last three games and four or more runs in seven of their last nine games. The Orioles have won five of their last eight games when scoring four or more runs. Cedric Mullins leads the Orioles with 102 hits and 34 RBI while Trey Mancini and Ryan Mountcastle have combined for 154 hits and 100 RBI. Matt Harvey gets the ball, and he is 3-9 with a 7.34 ERA and 58 strikeouts this season. Harvey is 1-1 with a 3.71 ERA and 12 strikeouts in his career against the Blue Jays.

The Blue Jays are 4-1 in their last 5 road games and 10-4 in their last 14 overall. The Orioles are 14-38 in their last 52 Wednesday games and 13-41 in their last 54 overall. The over is 4-1 in Blue Jays last 5 games following a loss. The over is 16-5 in Orioles last 21 home games. The Blue Jays are 8-2 in the last 10 meetings in Baltimore and 36-17 in the last 53 meetings.

The Orioles are finding ways to win games here and there, and that makes them worth a look as an underdog. However, I’m not backing Matt Harvey on the hill and haven’t done so in years. Harvey has been one of the worst pitchers in baseball the last three or four years, and this season is no different. The Jays should have a feast offensively. Hyun Jin Ryu has been respectable this season. Give me the Blue Jays and the RL for max betting value.
